These are posted in the Street Challenge for 2011 at Santa Pod.
Had we done a 13.7 on a RWYB, we would have been sandwiched between a Challenger and a Mustang :omgrofl:

Roy Pogue - Challenger R/T - CC2513 - 50th 09/07/2011 13.6771s 102.89mph
Maciej Redel - Mustang GT - CC2474 - 51st 09/07/2011 13.8289s 99.45mph
Richard Thompson - BMW 840ci - CC806 - 52nd 09/07/2011 13.8765s 97.75mph

This was Vivienne's fastest 1/4 mile at the 2011 BMW Show (and of all time), but not the highest terminal on this run.
She coasted across the line as the engine gave out on 2 cylinders and did NOT shift to 4th gear (as we later found out)
No. Reaction 60ft 1/8 1/8 1/4 Terminal
C393 0.7502 2.1992 8.8602 81.83 13.7025 96.07

Its been great fun :yes:

As you know I'm off to Florida in October and a mate has a yard with several chevy's in it, plus he collects 454 lumps.
I still want a 69 Chevelle and shipping costs are not too bad.

See you Sunday, Viv and I have a score to settle - V8 vs V12 (now its been chipped).
Seriously as for the 850, its the most noticable improvement I've ever made to a car (apart from Nitrous).
The old chips were 1986 AMD's (1 x EML & 2 x DME). Its now been brought into the 21st Century.
The throttle response is phernominal, should be an interesting race.
I will need someone to film it.

The Bimmerforum make Viv the favourite, which ever car she's in :omgrofl:
I will be in the V8 (no Nitrous) Viv in the V12.

Yes, thats sweet.
In my E30 V12 it´s 19sec to 17sec. from 0 to 200 kph.
And with some (very little) WON Help its sub 13sc. from 0 to 200 kph.
Go with a full 150 shot and its sub 12sec. :bigsmurf:

Rich, you need to buy some Nitrous for the 850i!i!i!
The V12 isn´t pleased enough. Go, and get NITROUS, Nitrous, nitrous, nitrous nitrous, nitrous

:D Thomas

Hi Thomas, Have you chipped your 850?
I put WOKKE chips in it, and wow what a difference.
The original chips were from 1986!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a E32 Engine put into a E30. So its a 350i :P
I don´t know if this is also Wokke Software what i have.
I had Rottaler II Chips from 7er.com
Maybe you know Erich aka "Shogun". He now offers this chips.
